On April 4, 2017, Rocky Brands, Inc. (the “Company”)
announced the appointment of William L. Jordan and Robert B. Moore, Jr. to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”)
as Class II Directors to serve until the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are duly elected.
Messrs. Jordan and Moore were appointed to fill vacancies in
Class II of the Company’s Board created by (1) the resignation of David Sharp from his position as a Class II Director on
September 8, 2016, and (2) the increase in the number of directors constituting the full Board from eight to nine. The Board expects
to appoint Messrs. Jordan and Moore to one or more committees of the Board at an upcoming meeting.
Neither Mr. Jordan nor Mr. Moore has any
direct or indirect material interest in any transaction with the Company required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation
S-K. There is no arrangement or understanding between either Mr. Jordan or Mr. Moore and any other person pursuant to which either
was selected as a director.
As with each of the Company’s other
non-employee directors, Messrs. Jordan and Moore will be entitled to receive an annual retainer of $70,000, payable by the issuance
of shares valued at $7,000 on the first day of each quarter, and the balance of $42,000 payable in cash quarterly.
A press release announcing the appointment
of Messrs. Jordan and Moore to the Board is attached hereto as Exhibit 99 and is incorporated herein by reference.
